I often get comments that i'm psychotic with regards to music.

My cd's generally chop and change from nina simone->pantera->the corries->The haunted etc

its a bit mad tbh but it suits me!

lol, you gotta love dire straits, money for nothing, what a track. i love the old stuff, its really suited to the e30. the clarion is also a mp3/wma player but it takes a little too long for my likeing between tracks.

Do you like the Naked Music stuff too?

I've been listening to a lot of electro/techno (esp. Legowelt) in the e30 recently
Also ripped all the radio stations out of GTA Vice City to mp3, good for a laugh getting into the 80's vibe, cruising in a white car :cool:
Cheers,
Robin
